way of looking at everything. she Is con-
scious first and last and always that all pleas

philosophical beauty Of change, and accepts
tobogganing as she will presently accept
whatever other good the gods send her IN the
way OF fun.

$40 which would cost at least half as much

in the United States, and the future emperor
had often been his guest on his pilhla.io'I III
